Penelope P. Howards - Epidemiology

Author Information

Penelope P. Howards is a distinguished researcher affiliated with the Department of Epidemiology at the Rollins School of Public Health, Emory University, located in Atlanta, Georgia. Her work primarily focuses on epidemiological studies related to reproductive health, prenatal exposures, and cancer survivorship.

Research Contributions

In 2021 alone, Penelope P. Howards has made significant contributions to the field of epidemiology with a total of ten papers. Her research has covered a range of topics including unplanned pregnancy among cancer survivors, the impact of prenatal exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls and other persistent endocrine disrupting chemicals on cognitive, behavioral, and physical development, as well as the potential biases contributing to health outcomes like spina bifida. Additionally, she has explored the effects of interventions such as LPG stove use on reducing air pollution exposure among pregnant women, and has developed risk assessment tools for resuming research activities during the COVID-19 pandemic in low-resource settings.
